A recent news story mentioned that Alberta was a bit of a hotspot for electric vehicle sales in Canada. Very happy customers apparently. Which I find odd. Alberta has some of the highest electrical rates in Canada. For my needs I would have to charge this car everyday, which would cost me approximately $4.75 per charge. On a monthly basis, this is more than I currently pay for gasoline. For those concerned about the environment, Alberta uses almost exclusively coal generated electricity. Which means each charging of the car using dirty electricity (our dirty oil pales in comparison) generates almost the same amount of air pollutants as an internal combustion engine would produce over the same distance. At this time I don't really see the value in these cars, at least in Alberta.
